 ## **Annual Giving**

Every gift, no matter the amount, enables us to make an even bigger impact. Through the annual giving program, you can join AGS members and donors who support the Health in Aging Foundation each year. These tax-deductible gifts are some of the most meaningful we receive. They not only help move forward our mission and support our programs and initiatives, but also inspire others to give through upholding the spirit of service and leadership in the field of geriatrics.

### Leadership Gift 

An annual donation of $750 or more will be recognized as a Leadership Gift in our donor acknowledgements.
